Breast Cancer Awareness Month

28th December, 2011 - Posted by Katie Hart - No Comments

I was proud to be part of a few breast cancer awareness events in October including a fundraising effort called the Pink Glove dance with Lexington Medical Center. 

The Pink Glove dance is a competition sponsored by Medline between hospitals around the country to see who can make the best dance video to win money towards their favorite breast cancer charity.  I had the pleasure of photographing the “grand finale” dance where a large group of Lexington Medical Center employees came together to dance for charity!  It was a close race but Lexington Medical got 1^st place with 61,000 votes for their video out of more than 100 submissions!  You can view the video at: www.pinkglovedance.com – my daughter actually snuck in front of the cameras while I was taking pictures and she’s the little girl with the glowsticks near the end!

I also got to be a part of the 2011 Women’s Night Out breast cancer awareness and education event.  Before the actual event, several LMC employees who are breast cancer survivors themselves were treated to a shopping trip at Belk complete with a personal shopper and even a runway coach!  Later at the banquet, they strutted their stuff and enjoyed a great speaker, Emory Austin, a breast cancer survivor and motivational speaker.  Some pictures from the Belk trip and the Women’s Night Out event are below.

Congratulations Lexington Medical Center- Pink Glove Dance 2011 Champions!
